Contain Spills Quickly & Safely With Water Containment Barriers & Booms!

While we try and do everything possible to avoid spills on the water, they happen from time to time – especially in certain industries that work on the water. Be prepared when disaster strikes by keeping these water containment barriers and booms on hand!

That way, you can simply throw them in the truck and head out to the contamination site to quickly contain the mess and prevent it from spreading. These non-absorbent booms are absolutely perfect for containing spills while they get cleaned up. They work best in shallow water areas, such as streams, canals, ditches, etc.

And because they’re so compact, just one person can deploy them on their own with ease. They can be deployed anywhere – from a truck, shore, boat, you name it.

The Different Water Containment Booms We Offer

The best part about shopping with us for our water containment booms is the diversity in our offerings. Our standard sizes come in three options: 25’, 50’, and 100’ long. With marine-grade aluminum slide connectors and toggle pins, you can easily create longer lengths by attaching multiple units together.

Most customers will find that one of these sizes is perfect for what they need. However, if you’re looking for something a bit more custom, reach out to us!

We’re one of the few companies in this industry that is still easy to work with. We can help you get the specific size you’re looking for with a custom order – so don’t be shy!

Why Buy Water Containment Barriers At CleanUp Stuff?

Because our water containment barriers are so lightweight and compact, transportation and deployment are a breeze.

These feature a polyethylene (closed-cell type) material coupled with round-foam floatation blocks and vinyl-coated skirting. All of this together creates an effective, non-absorbent barrier that effectively contains oil, trash, and debris floating on the surface of the water.

The skirting barrier hangs below the surface of the water line to keep the types of pollutants we just mentioned from escaping underneath the boom. These barriers also feature a galvanized steel chain to weigh down the boom and make it rigid simultaneously.

You can rest assured these water containment booms are built under the strictest standards. They’re built to last years of reliable use with UV resistant and reinforced seams and high-quality, fully welded 22oz. PVC material. After each use, you can simply wash the boom down with a pressure washer and good detergent.

Questions and answers

Does this boom absorb oil?

No. It is a non-absorbent containment boom: it floats and holds oil, sheen and debris in place so you can skim or absorb it. Pair it with absorbent booms or pads for cleanup.

What do freeboard and draft mean?

Freeboard is the height above the water (4″ / 0.1m); it stops splash-over. Draft is the skirt below the water (6″ / 0.15m); it stops oil escaping underneath.

How do sections connect?

With universal slide connectors, so sections join into any length you need.

Which waters is it for?

Deeper freeboard and draft plus a top tension cable suit currents, tides and long deployments; lighter booms suit calm water, ponds and marinas. Call (800) 869-9633 if you are not sure which fits your site.
